Covent Garden

I am feeling a bit under the weather but decided to push through it anyway and after work today I 

went for a little central London Christmas walk.  My Journey started at Covent Garden, a great place to go at the moment if you want to feel Christmassy, even on a Tuesday evening the place was packed with people.  All the regular shops and restaurants in the area are open and buzzing and the entire place is decked out to the max!  The inside market bit is decorated with massive Christmas and disco balls, its hard to tell how big they actually are from this photo. Outside there is the traditional tree that always has some street performer nearby.  

Below is the backside of the LARGEST advent calendar made entirely out of Legos.  The following photo is what it looks like from the front, each little window is filled with another figure made of Legos.  I find it amusing that it is noted as the Largest but not the only, who else has an Advent calendar made out of Legos?

Outside the market on the opposite side of the big tree are a few must see items.  First this photo here on the right...looks like a snowblower.  Anyone in London right now will know that it's far too warm for that to be real snow, its actually bubbles made to look like snow.  A machine in the bed of the truck spits out bubbles every minute or so.  Also outside is this GIANT reindeer and a very festive tree made from kegs of Jack Daniels.  I did not stop my walk there but this post is already long so to be continued...
